PRODUCT Multi-Channel per Carrier (MCPC) Satellite Platforms

A Cost Effective Way to Launch New Channels

Programmers face a unique challenge – meeting the demands of hundreds of millions of viewers, while juggling several infrastructures and distribution models. They need a simple, end-to-end solution to maximize reach and minimize costs.
